Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
5/5
I manage all of the corporate recruitment requirements across the departments at M&B, including HR, Marketing, Finance, Commercial, Procurement, Property, Legal, IT.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
5/5
I am thoroughly enjoying my programme, I have completed and passed all of my assignments and now working towards my end point assessment. Everyone at Crosby has been really supportive and I was lucky enough to attend the residential trip via Crosby. Such a valuable and memorable experience. Was great to meet other students studying their L3 & L5 HR Consultancy.
Skills Development
Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
5/5
Every day I am learning in my role, adapting and reacting to the everchanging external factors that surround recruitment for Hospitality in a post COVID world - Also my apprenticeship journey is keeping me proactive with my learning
Structure and Support
How well organised/structured is your programme?
5/5
Very well organised and structured
How much support do you receive from your employer?
5/5
My employer allows me to have 1 day off a week to dedicated OTJ hours, so supportive!
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
5/5
My Tutor has been fabulous! She has recently left but I feel that I am in safe hands to get me through my EPA.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
5/5
I think it massively helps as it provides me with a wider understanding across all elements of HR.
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
5/5
Due to COVID this hasn't been happening but prior to that we had a social committee that would arrange social activities for the teams to get involved in - we would have a social night every pay day Friday. Also if there's any professional events that I want to attend my employer is very accommodating.
Recommendations & Advice
Would you recommend Mitchells and Butlers to a friend?
Yes
Why?
It's a great place to work, the people are amazing, it can be challenging at times being in hospitality but it is rewarding and you can build your career with M&B. I have been working there for 7 years now and in that time held 3 different positions and had a promotion. Highly recommend. Also the benefits package is fab - company car for mobile workers and 33% discount in all our brands. I couldn't imagine working anywhere else!
What tips or advice would you give to others applying to Mitchells and Butlers?
